Gourd Quilt
The OGS is creating a gourd quilt/wall hanging like the one pictured below. It is a fundraiser for the Society and we’ll be selling tickets for it to be raffled at the Show in October.
We need 110 squares 4” x 4” decorated. They can be painted, wood burned, carved, etc. We only have about 30—40 right now.
We have scheduled a painting session at the Sunbury Community Library, 44 Burrer Drive, Sunbury, Ohio 43074.
DATE: June 25, 2022. TIME: 10:00 am to 12:00 pm
SUPPLIES: Will be provided. If you have your own brushes that might be helpful.
It will be fun and an opportunity to meet other members!
We will be putting it together during the month of July and will begin selling raffle tickets by August 1.
